Prediction: 3-1

Sassuolo

Atalanta will be aiming to extend their winning run in the Serie A to three games when they welcome Sassuolo at their Gewiss Stadium on Matchday 25. The Orobici showed character in a come-from-behind win over Roma, and despite their tough fixture list, we believe that Gian Piero Gasperini’s troops are going to cement their spot in top four. The Neroverdi, on the other hand, suffered a 1-0 loss to Parma in front of home fans at the weekend, with the team dropping to 12th position in the standings.

Even though Sassuolo defeated SPAL in their last away game in the national championship, we are tempted to put our money on Atalanta, who are eyeing a place in the Champions League. Mario Pasalic, who came from the bench to score the winner against Roma, is widely expected to replace Duvan Zapata in the starting line-up.
